About this verb#

  • Class 3c -нуть-style verb with mobile c-stress: end-stress in 1sg обману shifting to the stem from 2sg (обманешь). Note that, unlike a typical 3a/3b -ну- verb, the -ну- is part of the root, not a productive semelfactive suffix, so there's no single-act reading. Passive participle обманутый is common.
